Comment:

 Core calls get_plugin_data() in a few different ways. When it calls it
 with $translate = true, this won't work — as an absolute $plugin_file is
 passed to _get_plugin_data_markup_translate(), and it fails.

 But when core calls _get_plugin_data_markup_translate() in the plugins
 list table, it does it with a *relative* $plugin_file argument. So it
 works on plugins.php.

 So, while there is definitely a bug here, it will need to account for both
 relative and absolute paths, or we need to have
 _get_plugin_data_markup_translate() always receive relative paths.

 But, what's the indication of a bug? Core displays the translation just
 fine on plugins.php. Seems like it would only affect the bulk upgrader.
 Kicking this to future release as there is no immediate breakage.
